Rockefeller Republicans, playing defence again.

Hasn’t the defeat of every Republican who played defence taught them anything?

They can “practice” against someone taking Trumps place all they want.
It is a whole ‘nother matter to face Trump himself.

It’s like preparing to box Mike Tyson (in his prime) by training with someone who couldn’t get into the ring with Tyson himself.

Better to have your own vision honed down to 45 second answers the public relates to.
Play offense.

I’m sure that is what debate *champion* Ted Cruz is doing.

The wife and I will be watching the debate first to hear Cruz and secondly hoping to see Trump or Cruz run ¿jebush? off the stage.

How true, I never could understand why someone had to study answers to give when they should be able to state what they believe in or know or understand about the subject. (and they are asking us to consider them for our President)
Bet the farm they couldn’t/can’t stump TED CRUZ

Oh, is Jeb's wife an illegal? Must be because otherwise this would be a lie.

I thought worse, when I read that article. Jeb's wife is an illegal alien criminal who steals, rapes and murders others.

After all, that is what Trump was talking about, the illegal alien criminals!

I’ll be honest with you I could get up on that debate stage Thurs night and not embarrass myself. Most of the time I watch these debates and I know more than the candidates do. Its sad that these are the best of the best. That’s why I am all in for Trump. Or Cruz if he can pull himself up.
